Hello Rene,

first of all, thanks for your time in advance.

As I like to get this scanner going again, I started today reading in the tree 
of the debian sane-backends source package. For your info: I'm a scientist 
with C++ experience in number-crunching, not in programming devices, but I'm 
willing to learn ...

I found the  'sane-backends-1.0.19/frontend/tstbackend.c'  program, liked it 
for simpleness as a starter and compiled it.  

./tstbackend -l 1 -r 0 gives:

testing option 25 and up, takes a lot of time.
After this usb access is messed up.
the next call to tstbackend -l0 gives:

rmmod uhci-hcd; modprobe uhci-hcd, 
makes the scanner react again, without rebooting.

Is this info helpfull Rene? 
Is it consistent with the HP5300C you own?

I will dig further and try to understand what is going on, 
but any guidance in the digging is of course welcome.

Bert
